![]() ![]() The game starts with the Merlinean sorcerer Balthazar Blake's brief narration about his past where he witnessed how Morgana le Fay murdered his master Merlin, before being defeated herself and sealed within The Grimhold. Balthazar further stated that he embarked a centuries-old quest for Merlin's successor, the Prime Merlinean, where it brought him to New York. In the present day, the 20 year-old nerd Dave Stutler arrived at Arcana Cabana, having received an invitation from its proprietor (who is none other than the Merlinean Balthazar Blake himself). Balthazar revealed to the young man that he will become an important sorcerer thanks to his magic potential. In the middle of their conversations, Dave's presence somehow unsealed the outermost layer of The Grimhold nearby, releasing the notorious Morganian Maxim Horvath. Horvath demanded Dave what year it was, only to be interrupted by Balthazar who demanded him to return to his prison. Instead of fighting his former comrade as with in the film, Horvath made a pragmatic option where he banished his nemesis into the Magic Dimension and left, but not before taking the Grimhold with him. With the notorious Morganian sorcerer on the loose, the wise Merlinean wizard Balthazar conjures his telepathical projection from the magical dimension to guide the reluctant Dave Stutler in Earth's dimension during his pursuit for Maxim Horvath as well as teaching him the crash course of magic and science along the way. As the sorcerer's apprentice, Dave must master the elements of sorcery using magical attacks and spells to defeat the 6 evil sorcerers and their army of monsters in order to save New York and the world.Įntering the Chinatown District, Dave finds the district has been overrun by beings from the Magic Dimension summoned by Horvath. Infesting inanimate objects throughout the area such as trash bags, sewage pipes, oil slicks, and even chunks of concrete streets, they wreak havoc upon Manhattan, a chaos Balthazar sees as the opportunity to teach Dave some combat spell as he fights his way for Horvath's trail. Along the way, Dave also disposed crystalline structures which create a rift between his world and Magic Dimension to halt the monsters' invasion. Upon arriving at a Chinese temple where Horvath supposed to be, Dave is ambushed by Sun Lok, apparently released from the Grimhold very recently have too gained enough power from the Elements Domain within the Chinatown District to recover his magic. (which contradicts Horvath’s claim of him lived around 200 years prior to the film's events and thus imprisoned around 1800s).Īs the two are about to fight, Balthazar explained that he locked the Asian Morganian up in 1532 A.D. Dave and Sun Lok do battle, and the former emerged victorious. My "free" SSD from Microcenter was rated at 520MB/s read, so I didn't lose any performance in comparison to an internal (SATA) SSD.Horvath soon entered the scene, dismayed by Sun Lok's defeat and intrigued by Dave's magical talents. ![]() You won't lose any noticeable performance. My recommendation is to disconnect the internal drive (otherwise it'll get overwritten), connect an external SSD and install ChromeOS Flex on that external drive. My laptop will just reboot after a while, which I believe is because my USB drive can't sustain the performance for it. In my experience that's a good place to really try out ChromeOS Flex, but not a good long term solution. ChromeOS will not utilize the rest, no matter how big your flash drive is. It's really the FULL experience there, except that storage is limit to ~3.3GB. Note that you can run ChromeOS Flex from the installation USB (the one that you use Google's Chrome extension to create). Note that USB3.0's 5gbps limit is equal to 625 MB/s, which I suspect is more than enough for any USB drive you can buy on Amazon. It's not USB3.0 that's the limit factor, it's the actual read/write speed of the memory chip on the USB key.
